The sympathetic division of the nervous system is responsible for the "fight or flight" response, which includes decreasing digestive tract motility and secretions to conserve energy for other activities. The parasympathetic division, on the other hand, is responsible for the "rest and digest" response, which increases digestive tract motility and secretions.
